Artistic Director Stéphane Denève opens the season with the first South Florida performance of MTT’s Grammy-winning From the Diary of Anne Frank in over 30 years. At once solemn and optimistic, the musical melodrama was originally written for Audrey Hepburn and will feature actress Daisy Ridley. Dmitri Shostakovich pens a life-saving symphony under the scrutiny of Stalin. Inspired by Russian literature, Shostakovich slyly subverted folk songs, film scores, liturgy and waltzes, hinting at feelings far darker and more complex than might otherwise be allowed.
